Subject: [Intlwiki-l] request for deletion for other language-
wikipedias -clarification


> I think I have to clarify one more thing:

> The images, like I mentioned, are symbol marks of Japanese prefectures.
> Copyrightholders of those images, as far as we could figure out, are
> prefectural governments, not the wikipedian who draw and posted them on
> Japanese Wikipedia.

> In other words, we are not saying the problem is generic conflict between
> GFDL and Japanese copyright law regarding moral right.

> Also, I remembered one more reason to consider deletion:

> Some prefectural government sites state that those symbols cannot be used
